WHAT WE ARE ABOUT

Albany Park Bikes' vision is to reach out, educate and teach the under-served youth of the community it represents. One way to achieve this goal is by help make our streets in this community safer . Our second way will be building a network of future bike commuters. To teach them how to commute and get around on a bike, all while doing it in a safe manner. This includes the proper rules of the road along with safety tips on bike riding. Albany Park Bikes will teach basic fundamentals of how to maintain a bike in proper working order. We want kids to learn and foster a love of biking, in addition to teach them that in using a bike as a form of transportation they are also contributing and helping to preserve our environment. They can commute to school, work, the library or the movies just to name a few. We want to impart a love for their community and pride in themselves. The Youth are the future of America and we want to be a part of the building blocks that will make their life a great future.

We are under the umbrella of Break The Gridlock for their 501(c)3 status, and they are our financial agent. We are currently looking to find a permanent home for APB in Albany Park and do our local workshops at Eugene Field House.
